THE HOME THAT ROSEBANK BUILT.

Special Feature Ten

Featuring:

. Balustrading Concepts

. Glass Systems

. Atlas Glass

There’s a lot that goes into building a home. From the initial planning stages, to the final landscaping and addition of personalised touches, it is a huge job. In Rosebank there is a mass of companies working within the building industry - both in the residential and commercial markets. We started wondering at The Rosebank Business Association if we could build an entire home using only businesses in the area. We discovered very quickly that not only was this possible, we’d be spoilt for choice when it came to the suppliers we could use.

Subsequently, the idea for the

Home that Rosebank Built was born.

Over the course of twelve months

we have explored all aspects of

building a home. This month we are

on issue ten where we investigate

glass installation in and around the

home. In issues prior to this month,

we’ve explored planning, cladding

and building, flooring and insulation,

painting and plumbing, windows

and doors, kitchens, bedrooms and

bathrooms, utilities and appliances.

As we have moved through the

feature Home that Rosebank Built,

we have discovered new products

and explored many aspects of

building a new home. Our goal

has been to help you transition

seamlessly from conception to the

final building stage using trusted

suppliers and installers.

We’ve sifted through and found the

best companies available for the

jobs you need doing. By working

with companies that have earned

a solid reputation in the industry,

the process does not need to be a

headache. When you finally get the

keys to your new property, you’ll be

glad you had them by your side. If

you’re looking to build or are in the

process of building your own home,

there will be something of interest

for you. We’ve found that by using

local suppliers, not only will you be

supporting local businesses, chances

are you’ll also find ways to save

money, too.

Some companies in our upcoming

features are large international

companies, some are national,

some are smaller family-owned

businesses - this is the nature in

Rosebank and those involved within

the RBA. Whatever the situation, the

companies featured have excellent

reputations and expertise to help

the whole process be as seamless as

possible.

Over the course of this feature we

have and will continue to feature the

best products, suppliers and service

providers on offer in Rosebank.

If you like what you’ve seen so far,

keep an eye out for our upcoming

features. In our final two features

for this series we will be looking

at furniture for your home and

landscaping.

Twelve features, twelve months. We

bring you feature ten of the Home

that Rosebank Built.

Many people feel you need to see

it to believe it. Keeping this idea in

mind, it’s essential to get the glass

solutions spot on in your home.

This month we focus on glass - both

internally and externally. Glass

can be found widely throughout

residential homes: balustrades,

windows, gates, showers, to name

but a few. How you choose to use

glass in your home can truly impact

the overall feel.

In this feature we speak with

two companies who specialise in

balustrading and fencing solutions

for you home: Balustrading Concepts

NZ Limited and Glass Systems. We

also speak with Atlas Glass, based

in Saunders Place. Atlas Glass are

specialists in retrofit double glazing

for existing timber joinery as well as

the installation of double glazing and

single glazing in new joinery.

Come with us and peek into some of

the best companies working within

the glass industry.
